Change is continuous and inevitable, especially in Massachusetts. In this anthology, a dance company breaks away from high society. Upper middle class Belmont acknowledges its opiate problem and coordinates access to services. Lifelong friends from South Boston get in front of microphone and their podcast is a runaway hit.
Recognizing and embracing change helps to renew and preserve the Commonwealth. Families rooted to the North End renovate a church of their old neighborhood. The Rat is remembered 20 years after its closing as an incubator of the punk music. And More than a dozen schools help Indian immigrant parents pass cultural values to their American children.
